Kandi Burruss of The Real Housewives of Atlanta totally rocked the “blue” carpet at Bravo’s Upfront 2012 event last night (April 4, 2012) and while rumors swirl that at least one Atlanta “housewife” got a pink slip last night, Kandi just keeps on winning!

Take notes people… an entrepreneurial spirit will open doors for you, so it pays to be creative!

Earlier this year, Kandi’s ?Bedroom Kandi??won an AVN award for ?Best Overall Sex Toy? line, an award that surprised even her (since she’d just launched a few months earlier).

Remember Kandi’s mugshot? She posed for the photo during a celebration after “Bedroom Kandi” was offered a promotional partnership with the Hard Rock Hotel (Chicago).

And did I mention she has a cute new boo? Yeah… things are going great for Burruss and it just got better with Bravo giving her the Greenlight for “The Kandi Factory”!

Details + more photos below…

A few weeks ago, The Kandi Factory, attracted 1.4 million viewers and now the ?a 90-minute special will be aired as?a full series that Kandi will Executive Produce.

In case you missed it, the features Kandi as she uses her expertise and those of her “Kandi Factory” team in Atlanta to develop musical talent of a prot?g?s with absolutely no musical experience and gives them the opportunity to shine.

I am so excited that Bravo has given me the opportunity to give ordinary people who love to sing the chance to become up-and-coming stars.

Because of the success of the show I’ve decided to open up a full-time artist development facility in my hometown of Atlanta.? It?s going to be a great summer!

Congratuations Kandi!!
